CCing OpenBIOS list too.

We have a built-in debugger in OpenBIOS (maybe not well documented).
Then there's DEBUG_CIF in libopenbios/client.c and it should be
possible to add debugging print statements to forth/system/ciface.fs
too.

The problem could be that there's a MMU fault when the kernel calls
OpenBIOS, maybe because OpenBIOS is no longer mapped (MMU disabled?)
and then the above debugging would not help.
